Welcome to Endirinn! We are a moderate to advanced role-play site centered around the lives of Endirinn wolves. As natural disasters and diseases plague the land, everyone is center the end is nearing. But the fight for survival is far from over. Create your character and thrust them into the rich lore and interesting plots of a unique fantasy world.
It is inevitable, and exciting, when puppies are brought into the picture. However, this can be a difficult process and it is important you know what you're getting into before-hand. But assuming you've thought through all the possibilities, please read over these rules before requesting your litter.
Rules
1. Seasons Here on Endirinn we have two breeding seasons, two birthing seasons, and two resting seasons where no puppies are born or produced. The currant season, be it for breeding, birthing, or resting can be found next to 'Updates' in the forum information. If it is NOT breeding season, you may not request a litter and no mating activity will occur. If it is not birthing season and your characters didn't conceive during the breeding season, your character may not give birth. Nothing can occur related to puppies during a resting period.
2. Age A female will reach sexual maturity when she is at the age of two years. Before this time, she will be unable to breed. The same goes for a male. Once a she-wolf has reached the age of two years, she will go into heat during the breeding season. It is this smell that will attract males to her and can last anywhere between 3-6 OOC days. During heat is the only time she will be able to successfully conceive, though it is not guaranteed she will.
3. Breeding A she-wolf will be able to breed in each of the two disengaged breeding seasons, though it is not guaranteed she will conceive. She may breed with as many males as she would like for better odds at conceiving and males may do the same.
3. Fade to Black While we do require a thread between two characters interested in puppies before they make a litter request, we do insist your posts fade to black. NEVER describe what your characters are doing sexually!
4. Threading For a character to become pregnant, she must have a completed thread with a 'fade to black' post with her partner. This thread must have at least three posts from each character.
5. Pregnancy Once a character has successfully conceived, she must be pregnant for one OOC month before her pups can be born. During this time, signs of her pregnancy will only become noticeable in her second OOC week of pregnancy.
6. Dens Contrary to popular belief, wolves do not normally reside in dens. Only when a female is expecting pups will she begin preparing a den and will be very picky about the one she chooses to birth and raise her pups in. Once she has chosen this den, she will remain there until her pups until her pups are eight weeks of age. Then she and her family will abandon the den.
